About me

I am a myrmecologist. I use different ant species to answer questions that fascinate me. I have interest in classic behavioral ecology of ants, and currently I aim to develop novel genetic tools for the management of pest ants.
​I am a BARD and TAU President postdoctoral fellow (2020-2023).

​
I am also a strong proponent for inclusion in science. Please be in touch!
